June 16, 2021 at 4:59 pmSincere condolences to the family and friends of this beautiful person. Tonya always treated you with love and respect. We laughed a lot when we got together. Shelilia, Tonya and I had some great fun together and I am elated to have been in her presence. It’s hard to believe you were called at such a young age by our Father God. God makes no mistakes, for in His word He tells us that “I will never leave nor forsake you.” Weeping May endure for a night, joy cometh in the morning. Take your rest now Tonya…we will be in each other’s company again. I’m going to miss you my friend!!! Gone from earth but never forgotten. 😇🙏🏽❤️
